:10: Ha ha - glad you listened to Ron and sorted Tim!

I'll play Devils advocate on above, the wagon will be equally/more special if it was more standard and immaculate. The P1 is heavily modded already, just needs a few things to finish it off.

For me its a win, win moving a few bits over.

Both very nice cars and P1 must be lively with that power- Enjoy.

The p1 has hks gauges so should be fine for the trip.

Prodrive brakes are ok and might be slightly better than the upgraded standard ones that are there now.
I don't know how much you lot think I have but I can't afford £900 brakes:sadno:

Thanks rob that's what I was thinking as well. There is a lot of emotion tied up in this car due to its history I guess.

There your cars, do what you want with them..... your not breaking the wagon so can't see what the fuss is about

How do you find the P1 to drive Tim. Does it feel much quicker than the wagon, or as quick as the blob?

Oh come on, i normally get some socks and a £20 gift voucher for my birthday, you went and got a P1 :lol: ;)

Agree

Says he Mr 2 Scoobs. :lol:

Well I can find £900 for the brakes. It's the P1 I can't afford.:drive:

Yep, there are a few cars on here that would get the same reaction, Scotts, Clives P1, and even your old blob. I guess its because we have all watched them evolve over the years and they have all been done properly.

Nice thing is you can now enjoy two cracking cars.

changed the head unit and am going to check the state of the front speakers to see whether an upgrade is needed today.

took the front speakers out today and new alpine ones will arrive tomorrow


I'm surprised any sound came out of these!!!

job for friday will be to dynamat the doors a little, fit the new ones

I'm leaving the rears at the moment as they look a pig to do with the rear shelf not coming completely out:???:

totally stunning car u have ......i will own one ,one day

thanks lumpy:asskiss:

Poor excuse for a Stereo in a Scoob. Certainly an area they have cut back on.
Even my 2007 STi sounded ****e.
The crappy cheap French pool cars we use at work (Peugeots) are a million times better, but then they have to provide some sort of entertainment that the driving experience can't provide.

new speakers courtesy of alpine. had some lightweight dynamat left over from the blobeye days so popped a bit of that in

cant see why you changed them myself really:whistle:

Car was looking very good today

Certainly was, thanks for the lift down to Goodwood Tim, was much better than driving the mondeo :)

Pulls well too :nod:

thanks Steve, and for the brekkie:doubleup:

nice spec mate....:smile:

Brakes swapped Monday and a nice delivery from alyn today....arbs, dropl links and alk:wink:

a couple of small updates....
added the rear two pot brakes and a set of prodrive stickers (thanks scott)
http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps6943a7a6.jpg
also added the alcons from the wagon to the front and re-instated the OZ stickers to the rims of the wheels

this lot being fitted tomorrow and 2nd hand rear diff (plus new bushes) as we found this to be very worn when brent swapped the brakes

It will also have a geo check and then we should be good for Spa8-)

Nice little lot there Tim, what was wrong with the rear diff mate.

Some swarf on magnetic plug and sounded worn. I guess it's done 80k miles so fairs fair. I hadn't noticed any problems when driving either

Is that an Eibach ARB kit ?

Yep

nice lot of toys for you then tim :doubleup:

I'm just in the process of having my diff repaired, it was making a grinding noise every so often, turns out it needs the input bearings replaced.

NIce. Must see it at some Tim. All the meets have fallen at the wrong time for me at the moment.

http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps587983ec.jpg

all fitted and ready to try out in anger. apparently the geo was way out before brent sorted it

Enjoy mate :)

this won't buff out:doh:

:cry:

Looks a fair old whack Tim. Hope you get it sorted quickly and stress free.

That's a shame to see mate, but its good its just the front corner. When i heard you'd been sideswiped, i feared the worst door/rear quarter damage but looks like you avoided that.

Are the bumper/splitter salvageable with a bit of bodyshop tlc? Hope you get it sorted without too much hassle :)

Thats a bummer!how did it happen??

Hope you get it all sorted out soon Tim poor P1.

So annoying Tim. As Steve said, at least it wasn't a complete side. Hope it gets sorted mate.

Ouch not good tim,i take it and hopefully its just the wing/side light/mirror that needs replacing as bumper/splitter dont look too bad and repairable and take it no damage to wheel/and anything suspension wise????.
Hope you get it sorted out quickly and can get back to enjoy it and get it round spa in the future.
